Touch is an important part of communication. It can comfort, demand, stop, or encourage. When used consciously and purposefully, it can influence the dog's behavior and the relationship. This is about much more than just petting and cuddling. Why touch says more than a thousand words and what this means for living with our dog will be the content of this webinar.
In this webinar, you will learn:
- to understand why touching your dog is so important
- how to consciously and purposefully influence them
- what makes your touches expressive
- in what moments physical contact can be helpful in training
